Chapter 140 Keep a low profile but don’t bow your head
Xu Chen followed Lan You to the top of the mountain and quickly left the mess behind.
The mutation of the soul beast was what he was most worried about on the way here.
But it seems that the two true monarchs also care about it, so he doesn't need to worry about this matter.
The two of them rode the Spirit Bird and first circled the entire Cuihua Mountain for hundreds of miles around the core area of the Yuqing Palace. They felt endless envy and jealousy in their hearts.
The Yuqing Palace is not only big, but also not only crowded. There are palaces and buildings everywhere within hundreds of miles, standing on the continuous mountains and ridges, hidden among the spiritual flowers and jade trees, surrounded by clouds and mist, and the spiritual light is bright.
It really opened his eyes.
Compared with it, Taiyuan Gate is not even as good as a small service hall at the outer gate of Yuqing Hall.
This huge psychological gap also made him feel extremely depressed.
In the evening, the two rode the sparrow back to Cuihua Peak and landed in front of a series of magnificent palaces halfway up the mountain on the southeast side.
After throwing a spiritual pill to Lingque, Lan You blushed and said softly:
"This is the residential area for the inner disciples of Yuqing Hall. Lan You also lives here. If Taoist Fellow Xu doesn't give up, he can go to Lan You's Taoist temple to rest for a few days!"
Xu Chen originally wanted to refuse, but after thinking about what he had seen and experienced in the places he just visited, he readily agreed.
Food and accommodation for monks are very simple, as long as they have a hut that can accommodate them. As for sleeping, it is even simpler. They usually meditate, and a few days pass quickly.
Although it is indeed inconvenient to be alone as a man and a woman, this is what Xu Chen wants now.
As soon as I arrived at the Yuqing Palace today, I was shocked. If I hadn't been strong enough, I might have been lying somewhere unconscious by now.
Lan You's attitude towards him also made all the male cultivators in Yuqing Palace feel jealous.
The two of them had just come out together and returned together, flying in and out of each other on the same spiritual bird. Their intimate appearance more and more aroused the anger of many young disciples of Yuqing Palace.
However, Yizhen was defeated in front of him, and no one was provoking him head-on. But wherever he went, he was greeted by a group of young disciples who laughed at him and rolled their eyes. There were many people who secretly gnashed their teeth and wanted to cut him into pieces.
.
Xu Chen turned a blind eye to these sarcastic remarks and supercilious looks.
He was an orphan since he was a child. Not to mention being looked down upon, he almost starved to death and froze to death many times. He also had the experience of being pushed into a pile of cow dung by the stupid son of a landlord.
But so what, now he is already an immortal, while the stupid son of the landlord is still a fool in the countryside.
So his creed is just to live a good life. Whoever treats me well will be treated well to him. Whoever treats me badly will naturally not look good on him.
Although the Yuqing Palace is large and there are many people, he is now happy and not afraid.
He just wanted to make these so-called genius disciples from high families look down on him but couldn't get rid of him.
He didn't believe that after he defeated Yizhen and successively visited the Fifth Elder and the two True Lords, there were still people in Yuqing Palace who didn't have the foresight to find trouble.
If so, he wouldn't mind establishing a real prestige.
After all, Taiyuan Sect is different from the past. It is also a large sect with spiritual realm monks and Danyuan realm elders. As a disciple of his when visiting Yuqing Palace, he naturally has to have the dignity and prestige of a large sect disciple. At least he cannot give it to
Shanmen is in disgrace.
It's okay to be low-key, but you must never bow your head.
Therefore, Xu Chen followed Lan You all the way through the hall and passed through several palaces and Taoist temples. The two of them were chatting and laughing all the way, which also made the inner disciples living here shocked and angry. They all used their spiritual consciousness to attack like enemies.
He demonstrated provocation and expressed anger.
However, Xu Chen turned a blind eye, and his powerful spiritual consciousness rolled through all the palaces and Taoist temples along the way like a tide, provoking each other with those with ill intentions.
Among them, most people were naturally defeated by this collision of spiritual consciousness, and they all groaned and quickly took back their spiritual consciousness.
Of course, there were also some powerful spiritual consciousnesses among them, which slowly disappeared after resolutely confronting him several times.
Most of the owners of these spiritual consciousnesses are young monks in their twenties and thirties, who have reached the late stage of the True Yuan Realm. Any one of them placed in other immortal sects in the Great Song Dynasty Immortal World, they are the absolute core figures among the younger generation.
Lan You could naturally feel this unusual atmosphere, but she didn't care. She had an almost worshipful attitude toward Xu Chen, believing that Xu Chen's strength among her young peers was
It's definitely a crushing state.
What's more, she has a cold personality. Except for the few brothers and sisters under Master Yulong who have close contact with each other on weekdays, she actually doesn't have deep feelings for other peers.
And after such a weak friendship with the same disciple, Xu Chen's repeated life-saving favors, and more than a month of being together, there was no trace of any other man in her heart, including several fellow disciples who she had been with day and night.
The two of them walked forward for several hundred feet, and in front of them appeared a small Taoist temple nestled against a mountain and a cliff. It was surrounded by a large number of exotic flowers, rare plants, and spiritual trees and jade trees. Under the light of various formations, it looked both luxurious and elegant.
Pure.
An ancient twisting vine with a waist-thickness is clinging to the cliff behind the Taoist temple. The branches are lush and leafy like a waterfall. A stream of water flows down the cliff, and the rising water mist is billowing under the shroud of the breeze.
It flows like a silver dragon rolling among the cliffs.
The breeze blew by, carrying a refreshing cold fragrance wrapped in the coolness.
This cold fragrance is like orchids and plums, which is shocking to the mind.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, this is Lan You's residence!" Walking into the Taoist temple and standing in the courtyard covered with sapphire, Lan You felt a little anxious and uneasy.
Xu Chen looked away from the surroundings and scanned the courtyard. Sure enough, he found that there were many plum blossoms planted around, blooming sporadically in this cold environment, filling the courtyard with a delicate fragrance.
"Friend Lan, this is a really good place to eat and live!" Xu Chen couldn't help but sigh.
Lan You shook his head gently and said: "Although it is very quiet here, it is very restrictive. But the cliff cabin where Xu Daoyou lives is simple and natural. I like it very much."
Xu Chen said with a smile: "Next time Nalan is a guest at Taiyuan Gate, I will let you live in the house for a few days. You will find that it is not the usual noise. Tigers and wolves howl at night, rats chirp in the middle of the night, and birds chirp in the morning.
, there is no peace all day long.”
Lan You covered her mouth and smiled and said: "That's what Lan You really likes. Being close to nature is not like here, which is like a deep house. Apart from loneliness, it is boring."
Xu Chen waved his hand and said: "Fellow Taoist Lan, let's not talk about this for now. Let's make a pot of tea to quench our thirst. I haven't had a sip of hot water since I arrived at Yuqing Hall."
Lan You hurriedly took Xu Chen into a side room, brought some spiritual fruits and put them on the wooden table and said, "Fellow Daoist Xu, sit down for a moment, Lan You will go make tea right now."
Xu Chen sat down cross-legged, picked up a spiritual fruit without any courtesy and started to eat it. Lan You went to light a fire and boil water. However, seeing her moving and unorganized movements, Xu Chen knew that she was also a normal person.
The owner who doesn't pay much attention to the details of life can compete with what he has.
But this is also what all young people have in common.
Drinking tea, playing chess, playing the piano and painting are things that only those old guys who have been practicing for hundreds of years like to do.
Young people will spend more time on training and experience.
After all, ever since I entered the immortal world, my life goals have undergone earth-shaking changes, and mundane things such as eating, drinking and enjoying have slowly been forgotten.
This is especially true for young disciples in large immortal sects such as Yuqing Palace, where the pressure of internal competition is extremely high. In order to compete for cultivation resources and competition among peers, they are all involved and it is impossible to stop. Only those who
Only after you have reached a certain level of cultivation, and it is certain that there is no further progress, can you truly be free to do the things you like.
Lan You was busy for a while and finally made a pot of tea and brought it over. Xu Chen also finished a plate of spiritual fruits and felt a little full.
Seeing Xu Chen rubbing his belly, Lan You wanted to laugh but was a little ashamed. She quickly poured a cup of tea in front of him and said, "I'm neglecting fellow Taoist Xu today. Let's drink a cup of hot tea to quench your thirst first. I'll get some food later."
!”
Xu Chen smiled and shook his head indifferently and said: "Fellow Taoist Lan doesn't have to be so busy. Hey, is this the tea made by Su Xinmei?"
Smelling the heat and fragrance of the tea, Xu Chen's eyes lit up.
"That's right. Lan You has nothing to do on weekdays, so she will pick some plum blossoms to dry in the yard. If Fellow Daoist Xu tastes them, if he likes them, I will prepare some for Fellow Daoist Xu to take back and drink slowly."
After thanking Xu Chen, he took a sip and nodded again and again: "Not bad, not bad. The aroma of this tea is fragrant and spiritual. It is indeed a good tea. I can't help but ask fellow Taoist Lan to help me get some more every year. Our Taiyuan sect is the only one who is poor."
There are weeds and thorns everywhere, and I can’t drink such good spiritual tea on weekdays.”
Lan You covered her mouth and smiled and said: "How can you say that Fellow Daoist Xu is so good? This plum blossom tea is just ordinary. There are several tea gardens at the mountain gate, and there are second- and third-level spiritual teas. I will help Fellow Daoist Xu when you leave.
Get some of each, and you won’t think so after drinking it.”
"That's great, I'll thank you in advance!" Xu Chen suddenly smiled from ear to ear.
While the two were drinking tea and chatting, suddenly a clear female voice sounded outside: "Senior Sister Lan, Junior Sister Yun Xi is here to visit!"
Lan You was stunned for a moment, his face hesitant.
Xu Chen said with a smile: "Fellow Taoist Lan is here to visit. I'm afraid something might happen, so you don't have to worry about me. I'll just drink tea by myself!"
Lan You then stood up, confessed her crime and went out, but soon came in again, and there was a beautiful girl wearing a light blue dress beside her.
He is about twenty-eight years old. His facial features are as delicate as gelatin, his waist is like a willow bundle, and his black hair is like a waterfall. As he walks, he wears rings and robes, and a faint fragrance blows in his face. If it is not the clothes, it is the interior of the Yuqing Palace.
She was dressed like a disciple, with a golden lotus on her chest that was very conspicuous. Xu Chen would have thought that she was a princess from a mortal palace.
However, although the girl is young and is about the same age as Xu Chen, her cultivation level is not low. She is actually in the late stage of the Kaiyuan Realm. Her energy cannot be concealed by her billowing energy, and she has the aura of a child of an immortal family.
"Wow, you must be fellow Taoist Xu Chen from the Taiyuan Sect. You are so powerful. I heard that you beat the second senior brother to shame when you came here!" The girl entered the room and was startled when she saw Xu Chen and shouted with excitement.
Xu Chen almost spit out a mouthful of hot tea, so he could only forcefully swallow it and said with a dry smile: "No, no, senior brother Yizhen is profound, and I was beaten to a disgrace. If he hadn't been merciful, I would have been bruised and bruised by now.
I can’t move while lying down.”
Lan You introduced awkwardly from the side: "Fellow Daoist Xu, this is the youngest disciple of the Third Elder Huayang Zhenren. His name is Yun Xi. He is a little young and ignorant. I hope you don't take offense to Daoist Xu."
The girl, who was familiar with her skirt, knelt down next to Xu Chen and said with a smile: "Fellow Daoist Xu, there is no need to be modest. Although I didn't see it, many senior brothers and sisters said that you defeated the second senior brother, that guy
He is usually very arrogant, and I have long disliked him. This time he was beaten to a disgrace by fellow Taoist Xu, let’s see how shameless he will be to teach me a lesson in the future.”
